Governor Urribarri inaugurated the CEDEFI during his visit. The new research and education center for forest industry and timber products provides Entre Ríos, the fertile timber reserve of the Mesopotamia Argentina, bearing over 100,000 hectares of tree crops, over 1,500 industrial timber productive units (forest farms) and sustaining over 30,000 jobs in strategic primary production based industrial sector, with the best tool to train new workers in order to upscale the manufacture of pioneer wood products.

"The new Center for Industrial Forestry Development is an example of cooperation among 12 organizations, the National Government of the Argentinian Republic, the Government of Entre Ríos Province and a large number of civil associations. It allows this beautiful reality of men and women starting to dream on adding value to the primary production of our country"

"For decades we have seen thousands of young people departing Entre Ríos to find a job at industries and factories that were adding value to our primary products in other areas. Today we are starting to change the profile of our province, we are increasing our sustainable industrial activity, we are adding value to the fruits of our land and we are generating resources for our future"

If eucalyptus is a cheaper material and saves energy, I think all the Buenos Aires apartments should start to be built with it. This would be a great advance in saving energy and also a benefit for the environment.
